The Fender Custom Shop do some pretty special things, and
with the Custom Shop '52 Telecaster they hark right back to the early days of
Leo Fenders vision.

The lightweight Ash body is finished in a Vibrant Honey
Burst nitro lacquer, period correct, this finish will wear beautifully with
time and develop its own character even further. It also allows the natural
resonance of the body to sing and sustain much more effectively compared with
other finishes. The NOS finish gives the appearance of a New Old Stock guitar,
one that has been perfectly preserved since 1952 and doesn't feature any kind
of ageing or relic work.

The rift sawn Maple neck has a smooth, authentic,
vintage feel. With a 9.50" radius, Modern C shape, 21 frets and a
25.5"scale length, it's a real joy to play.

With the Telecaster design being considered by many to be
the original workhorse guitar, the Custom Shop '52 Telecaster needs a pickup
pairing that can deliver the classic Tele' twang. With a Twisted Tele' pickup
at the neck and a 51 Nocaster at the bridge, it boasts a versatile and well
balanced selection.

The original '52 Telecasters are the stuff of legend, a real
collector's piece. This Custom Shop '52, well that's a player's guitar!
